Loving Yourself
Saturday, February 18, 2023 10am PST/12pm CST/1pm EST/6PM GMT
As children, many people hear a lot of criticism. Did you?
Often so much time was spent focused on mistakes and things we’ve done wrong that we didn’t learn to love ourselves as children. Then as adults, we may feel selfish and guilty if we take care of ourselves and think positively about ourselves. This 90 minute workshop will help you learn how to appreciate and love yourself in a non-egotistical way. Two Sufi Psychologists will lead this educational workshop using experiential techniques to help us “reset” our loving thermostat.
Registration Fee: $20

Wellness Collective: A meeting of Wellness Coordinators from Hospitals around the Nation
The Wellness Collective provides a platform for hospitals to collaborate and learn from one another on the topic of burnout. We have received a great deal of calls from hospitals expressing a need for resources and guidance on supporting their staff. We have also had informative talks learning about interesting wellness programs that some hospitals have implemented. As a result of these rich conversations, we have created this platform for coordinators to come together, support one another, brainstorm, and target this crisis.
Meetings are scheduled to take place over Zoom. To register, please fill out this form.
